Permanent Security Lighting for Your Home
An always-on roofline lighting system that doubles as nightly security for Grand Rapids-area homeowners.
How is permanent security lighting different from a motion-sensor floodlight? Unlike a single floodlight that only trips on motion, Great Lakes Permanent Lighting installs a fully integrated LED system along your roofline and soffits that's always on at whatever brightness or color you choose — no gaps, no seasonal takedown. It's built for homeowners across Grand Rapids and West Michigan who want their home visibly lit every night, not just when something trips a sensor.
This is a year-round system from Great Lakes Permanent Lighting, serving Caledonia, Wyoming, Byron Center, Holland, Kentwood, Jenison, and Hudsonville. The same system also powers holiday, game-day, and accent lighting, so security becomes one mode of a much more versatile setup. You get a lit home on quiet weeknights, then switch to festive colors when the season calls for it, all without hanging a single string. Our supplier-patented, peak-centered installation method sets finished results apart from DIY or generic installs. Every job starts at the roofline peak using a pre-marked technique, so every light line is perfectly centered and looks intentional from the street. Clean lines, even spacing, and one professional installation mean no redundant wiring and no competing fixtures. The result is a home that looks welcoming and watched over, night after night, with a setup you control from one place.

Serving Grand Rapids and West Michigan, including Caledonia, Wyoming, Byron Center, Holland, Kentwood, Jenison, and Hudsonville.
Cost depends on roofline length, fixture count, and property layout — not a flat rate.
Pricing comes down to a few plain-English factors: the size and layout of your roofline, the number of linear feet of fixtures required, how accessible the mounting points are, and whether the install is paired with landscape or accent lighting.
Exact pricing is confirmed during your free on-site estimate — Great Lakes Permanent Lighting does not publish flat rates online because every roofline is different.

Security Lighting FAQ
How is this different from a motion-sensor floodlight I can buy at a hardware store?
Great Lakes Permanent Lighting installs a fully integrated permanent LED system along your roofline and soffits that is always on at whatever brightness or color you choose — no bulky fixtures, no motion-trigger gaps, and no seasonal takedowns. Because the same system handles holidays, events, and everyday accent lighting, security lighting becomes one mode of a much more versatile setup rather than a separate, purely utilitarian add-on.Will the lights stay on all night, or can I customize when they run?
The permanent system gives you control over schedules, brightness, and color combinations, so you can configure security lighting to run on a timer, dim after a certain hour, or stay fully on through the night. The direction for this page should confirm specifics once the control platform details are provided by the client, but the intent is a fully programmable system.Do I need a separate system for security lighting, or does it work with the holiday lighting?
It's the same single system — one professional installation covers security lighting, holiday displays, game day colors, and everyday accent lighting.
